For example, when I was collecting photos for my ancillary text, I realised that their quality was not satisfactory. To solve this problem I experimented with the focus settings until my images reached a quality I was satisfied with. ]]> 2016-02-24 14:11:59 UTC https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96985282 selenebrown98 https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96987359 My confidence and understanding of Photoshop developed as I used it to create my main and ancillary products, which also enabled me to enhance their quality and experiment with different tools. For example, my discovery of the camera raw filter through Youtube tutorials allowed me to experiment with different effects on my images and create different effects and influence the look of the rest of the page. However, this approach to the programme did lead me to encounter some problems; for example, I had difficulties removing some filters due to complications regarding the layers, which resulted in me having to re-upload the images and trying to choose the appropriate filter levels.  Overall, the programme allowed me to construct professional-looking products.]]> 2016-02-24 14:17:09 UTC https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96987359 selenebrown98 https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96990060 Social media websites like Facebook and Flickr allowed me to showcase my research and interact directly with my audience. For example, using Facebook I was able to gather feedback and information from my target audience about their habits and interests regarding magazines, which I could apply to my product in order to make it more appealing; in this case, it inspired me to make adjustments to the contents page in accordance with my audience's advice. The website Pinterest also provided me examples of professional media products which inspired me greatly in the design and layout of my main and ancillary texts, particularly my contents page and billboard. ]]> 2016-02-24 14:23:46 UTC https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96990060 selenebrown98 https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96991567 2016-02-24 14:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96991567 selenebrown98 https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96993076 The website Wix was an entirely new technology which I had to learn from scratch. The web 2.0 product was simple to learn and use, which allowed me to construct a professional and effective online platform. It also provided layout templates and easy access to image editors, which allowed me to present the content of my website in a more accessible and professional manner.]]> 2016-02-24 14:31:22 UTC https://padlet.com/selenebrown98/lzuc24d5mszh/wish/96993076
